Secretary of War Pete Hegseth made a surprise visit to Puerto Rico, addressing sailors and marines aboard the USS Iwo Jima. He emphasized the mission as a real-world exercise amid the US military buildup in the Caribbean targeting drug trafficking linked to Venezuela. On September 2, a US strike killed 11 people on a Venezuelan drug boat. Meanwhile, President Trump is considering further strikes inside Venezuela to increase pressure on President Maduro.

you couldn't in Europe, now you are going to bully a weaker country. smh
Sending US soldiers to death. Are the families ready to receive their bodies if it can be found?
I think it is time the world ganged up on USA and taught the anuses in Washington a lesson.The best strategy as soon as the USA invades Venezuela China must invade Taiwan and Phillipines, North Korea invades South Korea.Cambodia and China move into Thailand and Russia smokes Poland,Estonia,Latvia,and Luthalania and Germany.At the same time an international force is send to Venezuela to fight and chase the Americans out at all costs like they were chased out of Korea during the Korean war and Vietnam by the Chinese and their allies.That will confuse the Americans and finish off that terrorist Nation.
It's about oil not drugs
Venezuela is next iraq. This time fake rumours about drugs not weapons of mass destruction
Everyone who is involve in Venezuelan invasion hope god punish them and their families
Warmongers…….
Coward double faced, hypocrite, Pathetic shameless incompetent terrorist United Snakes of America keep looking for shitty excuses to attack weaker countries around the world.
Already, usa is waste, third class position. Iran, Yemen, China, Russia, others are Top class.
USA is running out of oil, Saudi sells more to China, so they (usa) need to steal some that is closer to home because the Iraqi oil costs alot to transport, so: "let's hit the weaklink with the most oil-reserves", voilá.
Typical , ignorant, arrogant entitled with a sense of superiority!
china amd russia should help venezuela with weapons and soldiers! enough is enough warmongers, criminals, thieves are just after the oil!
